A Raven Now
I have for too long questioned my purpose and every ideology that has been passed down to me. So much that it has caused me to start to tilt back and forth with my beliefs and my core values.
I am held down by my society, tamed by my religion, silenced by my government, restrained by my culture and vilified by my opposite sex. Now I constantly struggle with the waves of my fears and emotions, too scared that my views will be held against my throat and legs. So I succumb.
I rather confide in pen and papers knowing that at least my handwriting will be significant on these pages and hoping that I will run wild on the fields of freedom...Such hope is useless without these people knowing the content of my books. To escape this confines and bondage I had to write publicly these wrongs.
In bold letters I did, without shame I did; and it came with its cost. Self inflicted? yes. Excruciating? Yes. But it was worth it. Now I can see the world from a better perspective and live a life.
